Abstract

The association between small for gestational age birth and chromosomal abnormalities identified through karyotyping is well-established. Notably, advancements in cytogenetic techniques have shifted from routine karyotyping to the recommended use of microarray technology. This transition allows higher resolution and the detection of sub-microscopic copy number variants (CNVs).
